Abbotsford: The Personal Relics and Antiquarian Treasures of Sir Walter Scott, described by the Hon.

Walter Camp and Lorin F. Deland are the authors of a new book on "Football," which has just been received by the Weekly. These men are recognized as the best American authorities on this subject, and they have combined in this volume a careful historical account of the game, and a most elaborate and interesting description of the play as a whole, and of the "fine points" of each individual position on the team.
"Blocking," "Opening Holes in the Line," "Kicking" and "Team Play" are the titles of some of the chapters in this portion of the book. Over two hundred pages are devoted to general methods of coaching, "Field Tactics," "Signaling," use of "Fakes and Bluffs," etc. Other chapters of more general interest are on "How
to Watch a Game," "Effects of the Game on Players," "Twenty Years of Football" and similar topics. There are also fifty diagrams of plays with explanations. Everything is presented clearly and completely and in a way to interest almost anyone.
The book contains four hundred pages, is bound in red buckram and gold and is a very valuable work for the football coach, player or enthusiast. It is published by Houghton, Mifflin & Co. and sells for $2.00.
